Royal mail letter delays unacceptable

Residents have raised concerns about the delay in the delivery of letters as Royal mail gives priority to more profitable parcel deliveries.

This does not just relate to the busy festive period, but all year round.

The heavy fines imposed upon Royal mail do not appear to been a catalyst for change.

Sympathy has to be given to the hardworking postal workers who have their working practices dictated by the ‘company’.

Housing horror story.

I get a huge number of enquiries each month, many can be dealt with quickly, this one has been dragging on far too long.

A national investigation looking into the activities of a ‘charity’ housing provider took place.

The video explains the background.

Unfortunately the housing stock involved includes many around the Country, including in Tynedale.

See video-

My main concern is the appalling state of some of the homes people are living in with basic repairs not being carried out and no point of contact for the residents to get advice and support.

If you know of anyone living in property part of this scandal please e mail me.
